About the Author

About Chris Gatcum

Based on Steve Bavister’s original Complete Guide to 35mm Photography, Chris Gatcum now provides a revised and updated edition for a new generation of photographers.

Chris is a photographer, author, and editor with more than 20 years’ experience. As well as the obligatory digital camera arsenal, his camera bag bulges with myriad “old timer” film cameras: from early box cameras to TLRs; large format to pinhole. He is currently modifying an early large-format Speed Graphic to shoot paper negatives.

He has written more than a dozen books, across a wide range of camera-related subjects, covering film photography, digital technology, and processing. He is the author of the best-selling The Beginner’s Photography Guide, Complete Photography and Mastering Film Photography, among other titles, and continues to work behind the scenes on countless photography book projects for a number of leading publishers.

He lives in Devon, England.
